Brightwave has been exploring the use of 3D Virtual Reality environments in learning, knowing many forward-thinking learning teams are actively considering the future potential of this exciting technology. With costs falling and VR coming closer to consumer reality by the month, there's no doubt realistic and immersive VR learning experiences will shortly become a key element in the workplace learning blend. Join us at one of two informal sessions to experience the current state of the art for yourself. Talk to our experts, play with the kit, be inspired, and see some of the VR ideas we're working on at Brightwave and beyond. This presentation was delivered by Colin Welch on Thursday 29th January at Learning Technologies 2015.

- 2. Agenda: •What are VR / AR? •Applications in learning •HAVE A GO! •Workshop your ideas
- 3. VR & AR Technologies
- 4. Gear VR
- 6. Oculus Rift DK1 / DK2
- 7. HoloLens
- 9. Consumer Virtual Reality market worth $5.2bn by 2018
- 12. VR in learning?
- 13. Let’s start by acknowledging the obvious… VR is NOT appropriate for the majority of learning needs
- 14. Towards a hypothesis for VR in learning: IF… some learning requires more than just doing, but also feeling at a physical or emotional level…
- 15. Towards a hypothesis for VR in learning: AND… VR hardware such as Oculus Rift can give such feelings of ‘presence’…
- 16. Towards a hypothesis for VR in learning: THEN… VR can, and should, be considered the best way to deliver training that requires learners to feel presence in an environment.
- 17. “So what’s ‘presence’ and why does it matter?”
- 18. Presence is:
- 19. Presence is: More than immersion. Immersion is when you feel surrounded by a virtual world. Presence is when you feel part of that virtual world.
- 20. Presence is: …even when you know you’re in a demo VR environment, you can’t help reaching out to touch an object… ducking to avoid a low beam…feeling uneasy due to a large object overhead.
- 21. Presence is: Unique to VR, and also fundamental to it’s success.
- 22. So – VR can work in learning when… • A sense of presence is important • When real environments are hard or dangerous to access • When real environments or products don’t exist yet
- 23. Examples
- 24. Fire safety:
- 29. SHUT UP AND LET US HAVE A GO THEN!!
- 30. Think about… •Existing learning you have that could benefit from VR / AR •Upcoming projects that could use VR / AR •Any other ideas for applications Tell us… •Why VR would make it more effective for the learner
Editor's Notes
- Intros – explain who we are Brighton VR community is very vibrant – talk about Brighton VR
- Check how long people can stay Check they all know what AR/VR are! Have they used it – are they considering using it? Brightwave haven’t done anything for clients using VR yet – we’re not here to sell anything today, but if you want to discuss ideas for a project we have some real expertise in the room. We want your ideas!
- Knowledge ‘stickiness’ the stages of knowledge management: 1 IT systems that allow the transfer of knowledge 2 hr and corporate culture – deploying the technology isn’t enough, you need to foster a culture where people look for this inf. If you build it, they still might not come… 3 Taxonomy and content management
- £200 ish + Galaxy Note 4 Notable that the first device in the consumer market place is mobile. Mobile means untethered – and that’s a big thing. When processing power increases over the next 5 years we’ll be able to deliver desktop standard 3D on mobile devices – we’ll be able to come to Learning Tech on the train and not have to leave Brighton at 6am in the car!
- £10 ish + phone
- £230 – should be coming to market this year
- £???
- Someone said update could rival that of the iPhone – a bit far fetched perhaps but it does show that the market is expected to grow a lot!
- Biggest increases are in Kids, Tweens and Teens and Light Gamers. There will be a lot more devices in homes.
- By far the largest application will be games – however there are a lot of potential applications in learning and performance support.
- First though - a word of caution. It’s easy to get carried away with new tech and the promise that it might transform the way we learn for ever. It’s worth acknowledging that VR isn’t going to be needed for most learning requirements. e.G – financial regulations!
- So our learning designers have been thinking about how we can apply VR in learning and I’ve stolen these slides off of one of them – hence the self-important use of the word ‘hypothesis’!
